I've never seen a guy play bass and guitar simultaneously. Very impressive musicianship and looping squences, and some of the tightest percussion I've seen since Jon Fishman.
Saw these guys more than a year ago for only $5. It finally seems like they are getting the attention they deserve, so might have to pay more to see them now...but it's more than worth it.
IM A BIG NEW FAN NOW...SOOO CHILLED OUT BUT ALIVE. I WANNA BE THERE LEAD SINGER. ITS KINDA A JOKE BUT SERIOUSLY I'D LOVE IT EVEN THOUGH THEIR NO VOCALS
this is the song me and my girl used to listen to when we'd just cruise on saturday night with the windows down..i still remember the way she used to smile when we'd look at each other..miss that
So quite the most strange thing that's ever happened to me; played this song via suggestion, while also having pandora playing on my phone (headphones plugged in). I leave pandora streaming, put my headphones around my neck, and halfway through the song, it's like it's a canon playing, so I mute my computer and check Pandora. Same song, almost playing simultaneously.
quite possible that there the fucking illest i mean he kills it with the double neck bass guitar n all the fucking loops are sick amazing that two people make such amazing sounds and all right in front of us
man to be honest this right here is too nasty for me man like damn this shit here is cold some of the best ive ever heard this song runs like running water every thing complaments each other
@nick2991 Not only is Tera Melos the highly overrated outcome of shameless scene-riding, but have you ever heard them perform live? Do yourself a favor and forgo this opportunity to forever stain your impression of the band. Awful.
@amassouharm Tera melos is in a category all their own. Find me another band with as much skill and talent as nick has in his 1 finger. Let alone find 3 who can all play perfectly together all the while changing time signatures and keys without thinking about it. And yes i have seen them live and it was epic.
For those of you concerned about weed losing your mind and not needing it to listen to music.
Sometimes, weed is just that little bit of extra. and for you that say "I don't need that extra cause im already there" Good for fucking you. Leave me and my weed alone. Life isn't good enough for me, so I'm making it better, I'm making this music, This insanely good music, spiritual. Im making it MY LIFE!
I'm listening to this sober, and amazed at how good they play. I might spark a bowl. Amaze me more
I believe the title of this song comes from the fifth stanza of William Stafford's "Traveling Through the Dark". The music really fits the mood of the poem as well.
@cstubing you are an idiot. you are not nearly intelligent enough to even be having this conversations with me right now. go back to your dumbass ways loser.. "what's a great musician?" hahah dumb fuck the answer is stated in the question. a great musician is well... A GREAT MUSICIAN
Great musician, super cool song and a good example of a use of a loop pedal.
